Put typeface to textview in android dynamically

I am new to android. I have a textview and want to assign custom font to it. My font file (*.ttf) is on the server. I have to use that file in code to set font dynamically (on the fly). I don't want to put the file in asset folder or any raw folder. How can this be implemented?

  1. Download font from server
  2. Save to SD card
  3. Use Typeface.createFromFile(String path)
  4. textView.setTypeface(yourTypeface);

you need to add your font file to asset folder and then use this in your java code.

Typeface temp = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/RadioLand.ttf");

  bat = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
    bat.setTypeface(temp);
